CodeRoad stuck on previous tutorial (Student Database Part 2) in local Dev Container - Windows 10

Tell us what’s happening:
I am running the Relational Database curriculum locally on Windows 10 using Docker Desktop and VS Code Dev Containers.

I reached the end of “Learn SQL by Building a Student Database: Part 2” and I am trying to start a new workshop. However, CodeRoad remains stuck on the final step (“Run the script one last time”) of Part 2 and won’t let me load a new tutorial.

What I have tried so far:

  1. Deleted the previous project folder entirely to start fresh.
  2. Followed all initial setup steps again: ran git clone https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/rdb-alpha into a new folder.
  3. Updated the CODEROAD_WEBHOOK_TOKEN in the Dockerfile with my new user token.
  4. Rebuilt and reopened the container (Dev Containers: Rebuild Container).
  5. Launched CodeRoad using CodeRoad: Start.

Even after deleting the old setup and recloning from scratch, CodeRoad immediately opens up stuck on the last step of “Student Database: Part 2” instead of letting me load a new course URL.

How can I force CodeRoad inside the Dev Container to clear its cached state so I can load the new workshop?

System Information:

  • OS: Windows 10 (WSL2 + Docker Desktop)
  • Environment: VS Code Dev Containers (freeCodeCamp/rdb-alpha)
  • Extension: CodeRoad

you need to do the steps to setup rdb-alpha but create it in a brand new folder (for eg mkdir a folder called part2 then cd into it, then repeat the steps there).
